2 years ago MeshBlend was born! ππ₯³
Not on purpose, but a random message on the Visual Tech Art discord server. @makkon.bsky.social was there, and something about his "introduce yourself" post piqued my interest.
Amazed how many talented people I've met on online the last couple of years! π€©
It's a sign π
If it's any comfort, I've spent a stupid amount of time on the plugin. Probably 6 months full time at this point. π
Hi #RealTimeVFX #GameDev !
We're looking for a Senior VFX Artist to join the team at Unknown Worlds on Subnautica 2!

Most of the MeshBlend showcases I make are to highlight the blending. But in real-world use it's often used more as a "seam remover".
Here are some amazing in-game screenshots of Beautiful Light using MeshBlend to make the world feel more cohesive! π€©

It scales with resolution. So even if the whole game has blending it doesn't really care more than if a few things in your scene.
I try to target around ~0.2-0.4 ms at 1440p on a PS5. There are 4 quality settings, so you can tune it a bit.

Blending meshes always feels like magic!
Hearing what environment artists think of MeshBlend is the best part though! β¨
PS: MeshBlend is currently off on Fab this week - meshblend.lervik.com

Works nicely with MeshBlend as always β¨
Landscapes with overhang. What is this magic? π
Mesh Terrain in UE 5.8 is shaping up nicely!
Really like that I can have sculpt layers that I can then move, rotate and resize.

The reverse cut is so much better! :D
They should just cut it and relaunch it. Don't have to add or change anything. Just the order of the events.
I wonder if this is an accessibility issue? Making it barly visible is not ok, but making it hidden until hover is ok. π€·
I've just released the newest update to my Unreal Engine level editor called Scythe. Here's what's new... π§΅
Even smart people can have stupid opinions.
At what point is it "approved reuse"?
- Use the same model twice
- Use the same model but change it
- Use the same workflow for two models
- Use the same tricks I've learned for two models
- Use the same skillset I've honed over years for two models
MeshBlend is a plugin for Unreal that lets you blend any mesh. It brings next generation blending to Unreal. Easy to use, fast and great quality!

Rocks :D
Well deserved! It was impossible to play the game without noticing all the hearts poured!
PS: Who told lorien he could make club tracks? Like where did Osquio come from?! β€οΈ
It's just how we are I think.
You know the first time I saw Threshold Kids it just reminded me of childhood TV. π
Welcome! Enjoy our darkness. And please ensure when waiting for a bus or subway that you stand in a normal distributed distance to any other person.
In a couple of weeks all the people from other parts of Norway will travel home for Christmas. It should be a bit easier to understand people by then!
Congrats! β¨

While I'm most known now for my Unreal Engine chops, I'm also fairly seasoned in traditional Feature VFX, so here is my long overdue Feature VFX Reel Update!
As stated before, I'm avaliable from mid Dec!

I always find OST confusing. Since yeah, it means Cheese over here..
Here in Norway it's Revet and not Riven. So my search should be safe π
